2007 Searay 260DA RPM Question

[JENDL SEAS]

Have a 260 as stated above with a 350 Merc. Just curious what RPMs most cruise at and what is the general speed?

Thanks

We have we have the older hull, but we cruise at about 3500-3600 rpm, which gives us 28-30 mph GPS, depending on the wind, seas, etc.

I have the 06-identical to yours. For all around cruising up on plane, my best fuel burn is around 3850@27mph burning 12.5-13gph.

Thank you. That is almost exactly the RPMs I shoot for. With a full tank of fuel, full tank of water and 5 people on board I was hitting approximately 23-25MPH at 3750 RPMs. Appreciate the feedback.
